[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I SAH with a 5 yo & 10 yo. They don’t do camps. Most of our outings are free, cheap, or “pre-paid” (ie, we joined a pool and have a couple of museum memberships). 
So our outings are things like pool, library, State/regional/county/national parks, hiking, Smithsonians, etc. We went to $1 movies once. We’ve done some historic sites that cost a few dollars per person. We mostly pack lunch & snacks but occasionally eat at fast or fast casual restaurants for lunch. 
One kid was a 4th grader last year, so we use his free national Park Pass. We got the Virginia State Park backpack from the library, which includes free admission to a VA state park. 
We also have days the kids play in the yard/in the house/read/visit the playground across the street. (The kids actually ask for more chill days sometimes, so they definitely aren’t bored with the activities we do). [/quote]

Yeah with kids that age you are just unemployed. Be honest.[/quote]

And, yet, you pay someone else to watch your children before/after school, over holidays and during summer break, right?[/quote]

Yes, she was probably spending $1500 a week on camp in July. [/quote]
